Question

Electric field lines of force is ____ near isolated charged particle.

• A. denser
• B. rarer
• C. denser for positive charge
• D. rarer for negative charge.

Answer 1

The correct option is A denser

Near the isolated charged particle, electric field lines either converge or diverge, but as we go far from the charged particle, the separation between the field lines increases, thus, electric field line density decreases.


Therefore, electric lines of force is denser near charged particle.
